[wplug-bsd] NYCBSDCon 2005 Speaker List (fwd)

[Brian A. Seklecki]

It was great; except of course of the Greyhound bus up and back, all
within 36 hours.

I bought a bunch of rounds for the small NetBSD crew that was after the
event.

Good times, and of course a lot of Eric Allman, etc.

Plus Manhattan is always a good time, except I got totally hit with this
...really disgusting drip of...whatever from a mineral deposit seeping
from the ceiling in the Subway tunnel >:}

Plus the best Falafel joints are in the east village or upper-west-side.

Oh and the conference was informative..... >:}
